Sol Kadi is a refreshing Konkani drink with a light coconut base and a hint of kokum. I first had it in Goa quite a few years ago and just fell in love with it. Once you try it, we are sure you’ll be hooked to this unique Indian drink recipe.
Ingredients:
Black Wet Kokum - 4-5 pcs
Hot Water - 1 cup
Coconut Milk - 6 oz (approx)
Green Chili - to taste, minced
Asafoetida - 1/2 pinch
Salt - to taste
Cilantro Leaves - for garnish
Method:
1. Soak the Kokum in the hot water for about an hour.
2. Grind it in a blender (optional)
3. Strain and pour out in a jug.
4. Add in the Asafoetida and the minced Green Chili. Mix.
5. Add in the Coconut Milk and Salt.
6. Garnish with Cilantro leaves.
Tips:
1. Sol Kadi or Kadhi can be had chilled (as a drink) or at room temperature (with rice).

Thank you for the recipe. I just received a gift of home-dried kokum and it is a totally new ingredient for me. Can’t wait to try this — right now! ; )

The serving glasses are really cute. Are those clay pots? Where did you buy those? Please let me know.

Hi Sakshi,
Yes, we think the cups are very cute as well. They are called ‘khullars or kullars’ and are from India.
Take care

Hi Mariam,
Kokum is dark purple to black, sticky and with curled edges. The fruit is often halved and dried, so that the dried seeds are visible in their chambers like a citrus fruit. It is usually available as a dried rind, resembling a thick plum skin. When added to food it imparts a pink to purple colour and sweet/sour taste.
Bouquet: a slightly sweet and sour aroma.
Flavour: a refreshing sour taste, slightly astringent
Hotness Scale: 1
Above exerpt from:

It can be bought at any major Indian grocery store.
Hope that helps!
